I had kind of a disgusted reaction to this - not to the mother, but to
the daughter.  Yeah, the mother is crazy - but the daughter is
mean-spirited in putting all that on display, and that's worse than any
kind of crazy, in my book.  From the website, it looks like she moved
back in with her mother as an adult - surely one shouldn't bite the
hand that shelters you, however messy the shelter may be?

Though I do have to admit to a strange compulsion to straighten up my
dorm room after seeing that site.
